Why is the Nokia Music Player doing this?

Is anyone else having this problem?

I recently updated my firmware (N95-3, 11.2.009, T-Mobile US). Every since I updated I have noticed that when I get a phone call the Nokia Music Player launches. It only happens when I receive a call. Is this a bug? I don't use the Nokia Music Player, I use LCG Jukebox so this is annoying having to go and shut it down every time I get a call. The music player doesn't appear on screen during the call or after the call, I just happened to notice it appearing in my TaskMan occasionally and eventually narrowed it down to appearing after calls received. Is there a way to disable the program? I know it is part of the core software so I cannot delete it.

Any Help Would be Appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Weird... You must chek the process, running task on memory. Some third part software should demand the player. To see the process, you can use taskman or FExplorer (free).

very weird, i have never heard of this problem. i have the same phone, n95-3 with same firmware version, and havent noticed this problem. a last resort option would be to factory reset your phone, but you will lose everything.

Thanks for the replies. I have a lot of programs running in the background and so I will check these to see if they are calling it up. I think it might be Ultimate Call Manager or AutoPilot. As for a hard reset, I don't think so. I spent all day reloading all of my programs already, I don't want to do that again unless something major happens or I upgrade to the next firmware.

Thank You,

Ok so I finally sat down and figured out what was going on. I'm using AutoPilot so I can have different Voicemail messages/Answering Machine messages tailored to individual people. Problem is that THIS is the program that seems to be calling up my music player when someone calls. I don't know why it is doing this, and I don't believe it is supposed to. Does anyone else use AutoPilot and have this problem? Is there an alternative to AutoPilot that does not have that affect on Nokia Music Player? Is there a way to keep Nokia Music Player from running when that program is running? The kicker for me is that even if I answer my phone BEFORE AutoPilot picks up the call, it STILL calls up the Music Player. When I turn AutoPilot off, the Music Player doesn't activate with a call. Hmmmm?

Any Help Would Be Appreciated. Thank You in advance.
